Cykelvasan 2017 was fully booked today

The ninth Cykelvasan in history will run on Saturday August 12, 2017 – 94 kilometres from Sälen to Mora. Today the race was fully booked, which means 13,000 registered cyclists. In addition there are now over 3,200 registered for Cykelvasan Öppet Spår which, on Friday August 11, will run for the third time. There the maximum number of participants is 6,000. In other words, registering is still possible.
